Peculiarities of IL-29 production in patients with chronic virus hepatitis C

[Abstracts]
Natalya Geyvandova; Andrey Lipov; Sofia Rogova;

107 patients with chronic viral hepatitis C (CVHC) were examined. The polymorphism of the IL-28B gene rs12979860 and the content of IL-28B in the blood have been studied. With CVHC more often than in a healthy population, there is the genotype T/T IL-28B and, more rarely, the C/C genotype. The low blood level of IL-29 in CVHC was associated with the genotype T/T IL-28B. Decreased production of IL-29 may be one of the factors contributing to the chronization of HCV infection.
